Covering the late Neolithic period, and the Bronze, Iron and Dark Ages, Sykes touches on several aspects of the Celtic landscape of ritual. What this book lacks in text it more than makes up for in stunning photography. The author's sphere of knowledge stretches as far as contemporary Celts, and the modern performance of Celtic ritual in its various religious and secular guises.

From the heart of the West Country to the remote highlands of Scotland, the landscape of Britain is dotted with extraordinary sights, scapes and structures - treasure-filled Neolithic burial chambers, enigmatic hill carvings, holy wells and standing stones, crude pagan effigies, grisly fifteenth-century memento mori and fanciful follies in country parks. Homer Sykes captures these marvels of nature and of man in full colour and recounts their history and the legends that surround them.

The village pub (Country series)

Landscapes of beauty...in a world that time seems to have passed by. Step away from the city's hustle and bustle and into the country, where old castles and abbeys stand, where small villages maintain their charm, where the spirit of long ago still burns bright, unextinguished by the modern age. Striking photographs bring forth all the magic and romance of rural areas throughout Britain and France -- the highlands and islands; the gardens with fountains, topiary, cottage flowers, and fragrant herbs; the canals and country railways; the small pubs where one can still quaff a pint among friends. What wonderful places to be.

Over a period of almost seven years Sykes travelled the country photographing around 100 traditional British customs. Though inspired by the 19th century photographer Benjamin Stone, Homer Sykes approached the the events with a distinctly modern sensibility, creating dynamic images which focus mainly on the tradition that is being re-enacted against a background of everyday life.
